Language: ScalaQ. Have you found any show-stopper issues with Scala?
A. Yes, at least as of scala-2.10.3-8.fc20 it...
- It does *not* give a warning when Scala code uses a member that was @Deprecated in a Java class
- It does *not* give an error when Scala code doesn't catch or pass on an Exception.
- I read that Scala library member Source.fromFile() can throw an exception but Scala doesn't make you do something with it.
- In general Scala doesn't check Exceptions. That just seems unprofessional to me.
- Slow compiles
I like Scala. But these things are crucial for me.
